Yuck.

Based on other reviews I chose to stay here. Never again. Not clean at all. Bathroom shower had several different colors of hair left behind. Dirty floor. Bathroom door was frayed, paint coming off at the bottom and appeared to have been previously repaired with brown glue. Walkways outside very dirty with spilled substances. Cut my stay short rather than spend another night there.

The location is great and easy walking to spots around downtown Spokane. The room is basic but mostly clean (nice bathroom and clean, comfy bed!) but our carpet had a couple large, slightly sticky stains. Also, it should be said that this is a motel (not a hotel), which is not a problem for us but could be for some. The train also goes right by the motel all night. They provide ear plugs, which is great, but if you're a light sleeper something to keep in mind. Breakfast at Ruby's was convenient and made the room a good value.

HORRIBLE!

Our room smelled like mold and the deadbolt was broken so we couldn’t lock the door. The hallways and parking areas were filthy. There was no grass to air our dogs even though they said they were “dog friendly”. We had to walk 2 blocks away to find a 6X 6 patch of grass at another business. There were people in the streets doing drugs and other illicit things. This was an unsafe and horrible area and hotel. We left and have not been able to get a refund from the manager even though they didn’t even have another room to move us to. DON’T BOOK THIS HOTEL!! It was the worst hotel situation we’ve ever been in.
